I was a sous chef but now I’m having some sorta mid life crisis. 🍔 Now, I am re-discovering my love of reading, programming, and learning.
Pinned
I’m kinda boring but if you wanna watch me and Rin (@rineckersall.bsky.social) stream from time to time: twitch.tv/felisinvictus

Mostly it’s stuff like Dark Souls or grand strategy games like crusader kings 3 if it’s me and farming sims, moba, or interior design games if it’s her.

Watch us 🥺

The ads on Duolingo that say “get super to learn faster”

My thoughts: most of the time I spend waiting on this app is for the ads after literally every two minute lesson.

There’s something ironic about a website called disconnect.blog being offline and disconnected and offline lol

Just finished Jay Rubin’s translation of End of the World & Hard Boilrd Wonderland by Haruki Murakami 4/5

Such a lonely and tired ride. I don’t know if it’s the point in my life that I’m at or if we’re all this tired, but I connected with the protagonist(s?) just on his (their?) exhaustion alone

Europa Universalis 5 announcement more exciting to me than GTA 6

I spent my whole adulthood wishing I could be the adult who genuinely gets upset about anime but I can’t bring myself to do it

In other news, I finally got a copy of Mark Z. Danielewski’s House of Leaves and it is such an intimidating book

I saw somebody got an early copy of @lordgrimdark.bsky.social’s The Devils at a bookstore and I’m so very jealous

One of the downsides of a lot of the book / reading apps is that they’re mostly aimed towards a female demographic.

If the algorithm is working, why am I being fed romance incessantly?

My current read is Haruki Murakami. I’m more likely to read about the shape of a woman’s ears than a man’s abs.

How did I only now just learn that the infinity symbol is just math for “infinite number of solutions” or “0 = 0”?

My brain always likened it to a number or something like that.

I’m studying for my high school degree as an adult, and I’ll just say this about math: linear equations and systems of equations is the sudoku of math. It’s like getting brain scritches.

… I was so worn out and then suddenly things seem to be just fitting.

All these good things just happened in my life all at once…

I have finished reading:

- Berserk Deluxe Vol 1, by Kentaro Miura
- Grit, by Angela Duckworth
- Influence, by Robert Cialdini
- The Obstacle is the Way, by Ryan Holiday

Since deleting Facebook two weeks ago.

I’m actually quite impressed.

I also write poetry sometimes so I’ll post it here

I’ve never wanted to want so badly
I’ve never yearned to yearn
But it’s better to want than have not
It’s better to have bridges than to burn

Lost between a tablet and a pill
The antipsychotics feeding on their kill
My heart, just sitting there, so unaware,
Just disconnected from the thrill
